Supermassive black holes ejected from galactic centers? Quasar survey supports decade-old prediction
Source: Phys.org · Published

By analyzing data on around 100,000 quasars, or extremely luminous galactic nuclei, researchers at Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE) have found statistical evidence that some supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies are ejected from their positions after forming.
